Project keyVCS-68Project descriptionThe purpose of the project activity is to set up a 119.8 MW Natural Gas based Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCPP) and export power to the Tamilnadu state power grid. This power plant operating on cleaner fuel like Natural Gas will lead to lower Carbon Dioxide (GHG) emissions for producing equivalent amount of power as compared to the other power plants in the region operating on other fuels like coal/ lignite/oil/ naphtha. The project increased the installed electricity generating capacity of Tamilnadu State Electricity Board (TNEB), thereby helping in bridging the gap between demand and supply of electrical energy in the state. The project will also enhance the economic growth and development of the area. Documents for Removal: Verification Report dated 03 September 2009 Verification Statement dated 03 September 2009
